      What about 1946?

      Looking at the Asian portion, it becomes obvious.

      Show us India in full!

          Too early for Israel.

              It's a 1948 globe. India hasn't been subdivided and Sudan is still an Anglo-Egyptian Corporation.
              Look at the very southeast part of where Pakistan today is. It looks like it could be another color.

                doesn't explain Palestine. Palestine was forgotten rather quickly after the ceasefire.

                  doesn't look like it to me. I think I can see clear to Gujarat, and it's all the same colour as Pakistan.

                    That's my opinion too.
                    And it's strange because globes are evaluated for just that: their geographical accuracy.

                    We can't take everything as being depicted correctly on that globe.

                      That's my reason for suggestion that the map could be pre- "Israel's War of Independence" but post-"UN partition plot for Israel & Palestine"

                        But 1956 would be too late for a unified Germany.

                        1947-48 sounds about right. I'd favour 1947.

                          The independence war lasted for a year or so. the year was 48'. It could be during the war.

                            Labrador is a different color than Canada, but the island of Newfoundland is not. When did the Newfies join, 1948 or so?

                              Hey, did you make sure to check the bottom of the globe for a date of manufacturing BTW?

                                Makes sense. 49'. that was when the ceasefire agreements were signed here.
